Notes
P. 17-64, translation of the Constitution of the Year III (1795), including the Declaration of Rights and Duties of Man and the Citizen. It is unclear whether Lawrence translated it or whether he reprinted an existing translation. Reprinted in Perry's Historical Sketch of the French Revolution and in the (non-radical) A Collection of State Papers, Relative to the War Against France (London: Debrett, 1796).
